Listen first of all calm the **** down...lolWarnings are given for "bad" behavior. You can either get neg reped, warnings, bans or just simply a deletion. Besides i don't believe anyone really gets deleted unless your a real bad apple I mean...I've done some bad things that got me banned and all it really did was add to my warn level.Why are you worried about warnings now? No offense, but if you're new then just stay outta trouble :PAlso i believe this is still a "Hello thread." So Hello. Hows it going??

What the **** kind of retarded forum gives a deletion WARNING at the same time as an actual deletion? ****, you win the prize for most idiotic setup. There will be no more future contests, nobody else can compete with you.

You get on this site, and the first thing you decide to do is dis? You don't belong on this site.

That's another fail on our part. lolIf you want an explanation as to what happened. Read the spoiler, If you don't, don't:

Spoiler

The site keeps crashing once in a while because we have over 500,000 member accounts in our databases.Everytime someone downloads a ROM / views a page that contains member names, the server needs to go through the whole table ( through an index, for sure ) to seek out the required data.Add that with the load of seeking out the right files and letting the users download it and you're putting a lot of load on the server.So the obvious solution was to delete inactive members. We tried doing it the logical way but that didn't go out too well ( i got my account deleted in the process because of some strange settings i had on )Now we have an app to delete inactive members.We would have deleted you right away without the warning but decided to let the app do things his way which involved sending a message first. Go figure.Donators should be exempt from the clean-up. If you are a donator and have DPs from donation remaining, We'll restore them for you ( but we'd need proof ).

@Anubis: Good try but he's got a point. What happened is pretty stupid

A clear explanation: Our system has 2 schedules.Schedule 1: Send a nice PM to users that weren't active for more than 6 months a warning about inactivity.Schedule 2: After 1 year of inactivity, your account is deleted.Opting between a manual deletion (I've went through that, took several days, and the results were not satisfactory, + it actually killed staff members), or automated system (1 night to setup, I was already aware of the issues that it could cause and decided that dealing with people in a by-case basis would be much easier), the choice is quite obvious. Up until now, there's been over 3k accounts that were pruned about 4 issues with accounts including yours in the number.In your case, it seems it didn't even matter since you haven't logged in/visited the site for over 1 year, so clearly DGEmu wasn't an important part of your life. Again, since you were inactive over a year, you got picked up by both schedules, thus explaining why you got the two emails.Instead of acting like a 10yo, create a new account with an idiotic name just to rant and try to make yourself look like a complete idiot to the whole community, you could've simply emailed our support and we would've done all we could to help you with your problems.

My name is SO ******* apt right now. You can't even goddamn read what I say. Did any of you care to notice where I said my account got ******* deleted for inactivity at the same time I was warned to use it to prevent such a thing happening? You're ALL retarded, from the users to the admins. Case closed.

Hay sry pal. I thought you meant something else...see we get people who don't know a thing or two about posting, yet they never read the FAQ forums then throw a ***** fit all of a sudden...so i guess i thought you were one of them n00b's XDSorry...My sincerest appologies @Meru: Wait shouldn't he receive an award for this like Reaper68?

Those were active accounts that were wrongfully deleted. (It was done with a query I made and ran)In the case of this guy, it's really an inactive account past 1 year of no login that was deleted (Done with a system tool)

[Pan Dimensional Being]

Can we reinstate him, then delete him again the next day? This has been entertaining.

[Yuto]

Damn that's twisted Pan... @Meru: Ok i gotcha. But in that case shouldn't you guys make a note or sort of rule somewhere explaining to members what will happen if they aren't active for a year.
